they most certainly could do with putting a massive tax on alcohol a mother picking up her kids from school was 7 times over the limit.. if she hadnt had an accident [kids are ok] no one would have been any the wiser.

yes a whopping big tax on alcohol.. just to make it a level playing field.

as for fast food you do realize thats all some kids eat dont you???
